01Services
FactionCBF Pte. Ltd. (“Company”) provides a platform that connects Content Creators (“Creators”), Brands, and Fans. Services include selling content, product promotions (“Bounty Boards”), and community features (“Guilds”). We reserve the right to update, remove, or charge for features in our sole discretion, with notice where required by law.
02Eligibility
Users must be 18 years old to register as Creators or Fans. Limited features may be available for users aged 13–17 with verified parental consent as required by law. We reserve the right to verify and enforce these requirements.
03Policies
By using the Service, you agree to all Company policies including the Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy, which are incorporated into these Terms.
04Accounts
You are responsible for maintaining your account credentials. You agree to provide accurate information and to update it as needed. Inactivity for 36 months may lead to account termination. Accounts may not be sold, transferred, or shared without consent.
05Platform Payments and Earnings
Faction uses a digital payment system, the options for which will be introduced in phases. Earnings can be withdrawn in Singapore Dollars, subject to a 9% platform fee on standard transactions.
For donations and transactions under SGD 10.00, Faction does not charge a platform fee. Creators receive the full transaction amount net of any applicable third-party payment gateway fees.
Gateway fees are charged and deducted by the gateway provider (for example, PayPal), not by Faction. Such fees vary by gateway, transaction size, currency, payment method, and whether the transaction is domestic or international. As at the Effective Date of these Terms, PayPal's standard commercial transaction rates for Singapore-registered accounts are approximately 3.9% + SGD 0.50 for Singapore-domestic and 4.4% + SGD 0.50 for international transactions. These figures are illustrative only; the rates that apply to any given transaction are those set and published by the gateway provider at the time of the transaction.
Gateway rates, terms, and availability are determined by the gateway provider and may change at any time without notice from Faction. Faction makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or continued validity of any gateway fee figures stated in these Terms, and is not liable for any loss or reduction in earnings arising from changes to gateway fees, terms, or service availability. Creators are responsible for reviewing the then-current fees of any payment gateway used to receive funds through the Service.
Faction reserves the right, with reasonable notice where required by law, to adjust its platform fee, the SGD 10.00 small-transaction threshold, and its supported payment gateways and payment methods.
